Schroedinger Wheeler-DeWitt Equation In Multidimensional Cosmology

We study multidimensional cosmology to obtain the wavefunction of the universe using wormhole dominance proposal. Using a prescription for time we obtain the Schroedinger-Wheeler-DeWitt equation without any reference to WD equation and WKB ansatz for WD wavefunction. It is found that the Hartle-Hawking or wormhole-dominated boundary conditions serve as a seed for inflation as well as for Gaussian type ansatz to Schroedinger-Wheeler-DeWitt equation.Comment: 10 Pages, LaTeX, no figur

The CWKB Method of Particle Production in Periodic Potential

In this work we study the particle production in time dependent periodic potential using the method of complex time WKB (CWKB) approximation. In the inflationary cosmology at the end of inflationary stage, the potential becomes time dependent as well as periodic. Reheating occurs due to particle production by the oscillating inflaton field. Using CWKB we obtain almost identical results on catastrophic particle production as obtained by others.Comment: 17 pages, latex, 2 figure

Effect of realistic interatomic interactions and two-body correlation on the heat capacity of a trapped BEC

An approximate many-body theory has been used to calculate the heat capacity and the condensate fraction of a BEC with effective repulsive interaction. The effect of interactions has been analyzed and compared with the non-interacting case. It has been found that the repulsive interaction lowers the critical temperature from the value found in the non-interacting case. The difference between the critical temperatures increases with the increase in the total number of atoms in the trap.Comment: 15 pages, 5 figure

The CWKB approach to non-reflecting potential and cosmological implications

We discuss the method of calculating the reflection coefficient using complex trajectory WKB (CWKB) approximation. This enables us to give an interpretation of non-reflecting nature of the potential under certain conditions and clarify some points, reported incorrectly elsewhere [vs:ejp] for the potential $U(x)=-U_0cosh^2(x/a)$. We show that the repeated reflectios between the turning points are essential, which most authors overlooked, in obtaining the non-reflecting c ondition. We find that the considered repeated reflection paths are in conformity with Bogolubov transformation technique. We discuss the implications of the results when applied to the particle production scenario, considering $x$ as a time variable and also stress the cosmological implications of the result with reference to radiation domonated and de Sitter spacetime.Comment: 9 pages, late

Monodromy group for a strongly semistable principal bundle over a curve, II

Let $X$ be a geometrically irreducible smooth projective curve defined over a field $k$. Assume that $X$ has a $k$-rational point; fix a $k$-rational point $x\in X$. From these data we construct an affine group scheme ${\mathcal G}_X$ defined over the field $k$ as well as a principal ${\mathcal G}_X$-bundle $E_{{\mathcal G}_X}$ over the curve $X$. The group scheme ${\mathcal G}_X$ is given by a ${\mathbb Q}$--graded neutral Tannakian category built out of all strongly semistable vector bundles over $X$. The principal bundle $E_{{\mathcal G}_X}$ is tautological. Let $G$ be a linear algebraic group, defined over $k$, that does not admit any nontrivial character which is trivial on the connected component, containing the identity element, of the reduced center of $G$. Let $E_G$ be a strongly semistable principal $G$-bundle over $X$. We associate to $E_G$ a group scheme $M$ defined over $k$, which we call the monodromy group scheme of $E_G$, and a principal $M$-bundle $E_M$ over $X$, which we call the monodromy bundle of $E_G$. The group scheme $M$ is canonically a quotient of ${\mathcal G}_X$, and $E_M$ is the extension of structure group of $E_{{\mathcal G}_X}$. The group scheme $M$ is also canonically embedded in the fiber ${\rm Ad}(E_G)_{x}$ over $x$ of the adjoint bundle.Comment: This final version includes strengthening of the result by referee's comments.

The Holography Hypothesis in Pre-Big-Bang Cosmology with String Sources

The holographic ratio in Pre-big bang string cosmology is obtained in the presence string sources. An iterative procedure is adopted to solve the equations of motion and derive the ratio in four dimensional world. First the zeroth order ratio is computed in the remote past, i.e. at $t=-\infty$, then the holographic ratio is obtained taking into account the evolution of the backgrounds following the iterative procedure. The corrections to the zeroth order value of the ratio depends on the form of the initial number distribution of the strings chosen. Moreover, we estimate the holographic ratio in the recent past (i.e. when $\gamma=-\frac{1}{d}$) and in the remote past (i.e. when $\gamma= 0$), $\gamma\equiv\frac{p}{\varrho}$, in different dimensions in the Einstein frame and in the string frame. We find that in the first case it has similar time dependences in both the frames, especially in four dimensions the ratio is explicitly computed to be the same in the two cases, whereas for $\gamma=0$ case the time dependence is different.Comment: 33 pages, latex, five figure
